Amplify CKLA in Action
Rich, engaging content is at the center of Amplify Core Knowledge Language Arts® (CKLA) curriculum and instruction. Students build subject area knowledge in history, science, literature, and the arts by learning to read and write. High-quality instructional materials built on the Science of Reading simplify your planning and provide the support and resources you need.

Grade 1
In this Amplify CKLA Knowledge Strand lesson, students achieve reading proficiency with complex read-alouds, exposure to background knowledge, vocabulary practice, text-based discussions, and writing activities.
Grade 4
